Dominant position

A dominant position is defined in Section 4(2) and is deemed to exist where one or more undertakings or association of undertakings, who, either within the entire country or a given region, hold an exclusive right or other dominant position in a specified product market so as to significantly control the price levels or terms of supply of that product, or who, in some other corresponding manner, influence the competitive conditions on a given level of production or distribution.

Section 7 includes a non-exhaustive list of practices that are deemed abusive when engaged in by a dominant undertaking, including imposing unfair prices or trading conditions, limiting production to the prejudice of consumers, applying dissimilar and unfair conditions to trading partners, and imposing conditions which have no connection with the subject of the contract.
